I am here solo inside this incredible place. I hate the Red Sox, but as a baseball guy, this place gives me goosebumps.

As for the Tar Heels, they are wearing all blye throwbacks.

I apologize folks. It has been a zoo in my orbit lately. If no setbacks over the next 24 hours, I hope to have updated stats up before the game tomorrow night, plus announcing the winner of Contest #5.

75 years old. Sorry to see another great coach leave.

On holiday in SE Asia. I wear my unc baseball cap pretty much everyday. Amazing how many people give positive recognitions. Some alumni but a lot of locals. Vietnam, Thailand and beyond - Tar Heels brand is right up there with the NY Yankees.

I apologize folks. It has been a zoo in my orbit lately. If no setbacks over the next 24 hours, I hope to have updated stats up before the game tomorrow night, plus announcing the winner of Contest #5.

Contest #5 Early Season Non-Conference Contest

I simply do not get how a team that should be hyped as hell with these marque games against ranked teams, that mean so much to tournament seeding and recruiting, can come out of the gate so consistently uninspired and flat. Is the team chemistry that bad, is the confidence that shattered or is the game prep and coaching really that bad?

It's out of control and a horrendous model. The playoffs are starting and we have full free agency.

A few ideas,a nd please offer any you have:

*Get rid of conference title games, each league adds a conference game to their schedule and all teams play 13 games
*No more bowl games
*Start the season in late August - one open date.
*Playoffs start the Saturday the conference title games are now played.
*Next round is the following weekend.
*Four teams left: They play the third Saturday in December.
*National title game is Jan. 1
*Portal OPENS on Jan. 2 at 8 AM EST. It closes Jan. 9 at midnight.
---Kids must find a new school by Jan. 18 in order to enroll for that semester.
---If they don't by that time, they will have to sti out the semester.
---If they continue attending classes at their current school while also in the portal, they can return to that school by Jan. 15.

The key to next season is to have a better OL than we had under Mack 2.0. That should happen with incoming talent and a new OL coach to protect our green QB.

Maybe the new coach and scheme can help some of Mack's OL guys to finally get it on the field like Rice, McGown, etc.

Right now I'd say the OL starters next season are:
LT - Lindberg or McVay
LG - Banfield
C - Blaske
RG - McGowan or Kelly
RT - McVay or Lindberg

Green maybe moves from RT to back-up RG, Rice maybe backup RG or LG.

Hopefully we get 1-3 more from CFP teams to make it a stronger 2-deep.

……and Happy Holidays to you all. We hope you have a safe and wonderful holiday with your friends and family.

It’s a clown show on defense. Bateman told him last year he couldn’t win with some of these coaches. Seems to me that’s beating out.

Guys like Duck and Grimes looked better as true freshman. They are regressing under Bly. Thig spends more time at Carolina Inn than in the film room.

Fedora’s skill guys, Longo, Sam, and now Maye are the only reason we haven’t been a 2 win team since his return.
